Mohun Bagan youth teams are the age group football teams of Indian professional multi-sports club Mohun Bagan. The U-18 and the reserve teams are generally referred to as last stage of progression for promotion of youth players into the first squad. The youth teams participate in the Calcutta Football League, the Reliance Foundation Development League and the Elite league of various age groups. The team was set up with the leadership of the footballer Balai Das Chattopadhyay in 1944.[1]

Academy history

Mohun Bagan collaborated with Steel Authority of India Ltd. (SAIL) to establish a residential academy for youth development in 2002. On 20 July 2002 Mohun Bagan SAIL Football Academy was set up in Durgapur, and the primary objective of the academy was "Spot and Groom the Youth", with the best of training using modern techniques, tactics, physical and psychological conditioning, and related inputs, so that in near future, India could see them in the national platform.

In 2007 the club had appointed a famous Brazilian football expert Prof. Luiz Greco, as the Technical Director of the youth teams of Mohun Bagan SAIL Football Academy.[2]

The academy teams won various trophies across the country. The academy's greatest feat was achieved in 2006 when the club's U14 team qualified for the Final Round of Nike Premier Cup (Under-14), a worldwide club tournament hosted by Manchester United, by beating East Bengal in the National Qualifier and Singapore Sports School in the final of South-East Asia Qualifier. Till then no Indian team had ever participated at the premier level since independence.[3] The team faced some of the top clubs like Manchester United, São Paulo, Athletic Bilbao and Ferencvárosi in the group stage and, Brussels and Universidad Católica in the 17-20th place play-offs semi-finals and 19th place play-off final respectively. Unfortunately the team didn't win any match and ranked 20th in the tournament among the 20 qualified teams over the world.[4]

From 2015 to 2018 the U-19 team participated in the prestigious IFA Shield, which was organised as an U-19 tournament due to the busy schedules of the clubs' senior teams. Mohun Bagan was the runners-up for two consecutive seasons, 2017 and 2018.[5][6]

In 2017 the U-15 team defeated ATK by a record 13–0 scoreline in the opening match of AIFF U15 Youth League.[7]

In 2019 the U-19 team also participated in a regional franchise-based Talent Hunt league called Zee Bangla Football League that featured the top 4 clubs of West Bengal (Mohun Bagan, East Bengal, Mohammedan and Aryan) along with 16 franchise teams representing various districts of the state.[8] The organisers declared both Mohun Bagan and East Bengal as the winners after the final match was abandoned due to fan unrest.[9]

On 16 January 2020, ATK owners Kolkata Games and Sports Pvt. Ltd. acquired 80% stake in Mohun Bagan's football division.[10] After postponement due to COVID-19 pandemic, the joint venture of Mohun Bagan and KGSPL was officially launched on 10 July 2020, and accordingly the football division of Mohun Bagan came to be known as ATK Mohun Bagan FC for sponsorship purpose,[11] but the youth program was paused for the next two seasons due to pandemic.[12]

In June 2022, trials were conducted under senior team head coach Juan Ferrando to set up new under-13, under-15 and under-18 teams for Mohun Bagan.[13] UEFA Pro License holder Spanish coach Josep Maria Roma Gilbert was brought in from Al Hilal to take charge of the youth setup.[14] In the 2022-23 U-17 Youth Cup, Mohun Bagan finished 3rd out of 5 teams in group B. Currently, the reserve team of Mohun Bagan is participating in the 2023 Reliance Foundation Development League. This competition is predominantly for the under-21 age group, with five under-23 players allowed in the squad and three in the playing XI.[15] Mohun Bagan has included seven senior team players in its squad,[16] and is currently placed 2nd in the East region.
